HOMOPHOBE.
I must have missed it. Did the professor actually show that FDR’s programs ended the Great Depression?
...and this particular “Professor of Arts and Letters” at, what was it again, “Millsaps College” (aka “the 13th Grade”) thinks his opinions should be paid attention to, because... ...?
“Professor Bemoans Stupidity of His ‘Teabagger’ Students”
So this professor was calling his liberal, homosexual students stupid?
You will ask yourself that forever.
Our son went to Berkeley. Came back nutty. Now working at a surf shop in Santa Monica.
Gives a whole new meaning to the term BS Degree.
We all know that liberals LOVE getting a good old-fashioned teabagging, which explains why they use that term as often as they do.
ATTENTION DEMOCRAT IDIOTS: In November, you’re going to get teabagged by the majority of America.
Wow. I see weapons-grade stupid all the time. But how does it get a Ph.D., a full professorship and a department chair?
Professor Bemoans Stupidity of His ‘Teabagger’ Students
Yeah, they ended up in _his_ class... The smart ones would have tried to find a different prof.
What does he say about his c#@k s*&#$ng friends?
You are a racist tea bagger.
Mississippi ping
Talk about "all hat, no cattle". that's a mighty big title.
its very hypocritical, of the libs who all about gay rights, to use a term like tea bagger, as a derogatory slam for republicans.
but expecting anything sensical from libs, is a waste of effort. some day maybe we can study them, under a petri dish, or in a cage.
UCLA Economics professors: FDR's policies prolonged Depression by 7 years, UCLA economists calculate
"... "Why the Great Depression lasted so long has always been a great mystery, and because we never really knew the reason, we have always worried whether we would have another 10- to 15-year economic slump," said Ohanian, vice chair of UCLA's Department of Economics. "We found that a relapse isn't likely unless lawmakers gum up a recovery with ill-conceived stimulus policies."
(WHY HELLO THAR, OBAMA!)
"... In an article in the August issue of the Journal of Political Economy, Ohanian and Cole blame specific anti-competition and pro-labor measures that Roosevelt promoted and signed into law June 16, 1933.
"... President Roosevelt believed that excessive competition was responsible for the Depression by reducing prices and wages, and by extension reducing employment and demand for goods and services," said Cole, also a UCLA professor of economics. "So he came up with a recovery package that would be unimaginable today, allowing businesses in every industry to collude without the threat of antitrust prosecution and workers to demand salaries about 25 percent above where they ought to have been, given market forces. The economy was poised for a beautiful recovery, but that recovery was stalled by these misguided policies."
California should take lessons from it's own state-run university system, given their half-trillion dollar shortfall in paying public pensions.
Hey, I teach in a college, and both my teabagger and teapartier students are a lot smarter than my liberal straight students. My liberal female students miss too many classes having their abortions, and my liberal male students are usually too stoned to show up. The gays and conservatives, always there and always learning.
Whereas, for this professor and his (presumed) co-religionists of the secular-humanist bent, they are also people of faith, and their basic faith is in the Government as Master. Given that there have been a multitude of governmental and economic systems in the historical record, please elucidate Professor McElvaine, without resorting to the ad hominem so beloved of the current left, what system do you see as performing CONSISTENTLY BETTER OVER TIME?!?!

Twenty years of busting my butt gave me a much different perspective on life and most of the professors were my age or younger. A sentient Redneck was something scary to them, LOL! I argued my way through everything but math and science. No doubt some of them were glad to see me go!
Talk to your kids, find out what they are being taught and be ready to shoot down the crap. If they don't want to talk about it get very suspicious, they may be being taught that you are a clueless old neandertal and wrong about everything. It is happening. Old people, unless they are in a wheelchair, drooling in their lap, scare the liberals, old people know stuff and don't tolerate BS.
